Rankine and Russell at Eureka Fine Art

Local artist and photographer John Rankine has officially become a new member of the Eureka Fine Art Gallery co-op and will be the gallery’s featured artist during December’s Eureka Springs Second Saturday Gallery Stroll.

Rankine will debut eight new photographs from his “On My Morning Walk” series.

The photographs, all shot with the iPhone 6, were taken every day over a one-year period and posted daily to Facebook.

The hundreds of photographs of nature, little micro-glimpses of the landscape, are Instagram fragments that collectively make up the giant whole we call the Ozarks.

Ceramic artist Terry Russell will be the featured guest artist for the month and show a variety of new works, including his ongoing series of Raku fired masks along with raku and stoneware fired vases and mugs.

Opening Reception is Saturday, Dec.12 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. and all are invited.

The Eureka Fine Art Gallery is located at 2 Pine St. across the street from the Eureka Springs post office.
